A sample Answer to this speaking in text:

When looking for information for a research project, I prefer to get my information mainly from the internet. First of all, when doing research online, a student can get access to massive amount of information, and it is very easy to cross reference the information for accuracy. While in a library, you can only checkout or carry a few books at a time. Second, some books and reference are hard to find in a library, for example, when a book gets checked out by someone else, you have to wait till it’s returned to read it, but resources online are always there and ready for use.
